2.4.7.1 Standard Output


Tape Drive Simulation Analysis provides both summary and
detail level graphs and reports displaying periods of
allocation.  Examples of each are included in this section.

The summary level emphasizes time periods having tape drive
allocations which exceed exception limits set by the user and
displays only work showing tape drive usage.  The detail
level shows all workloads independent of tape drive use
during the period being analyzed, so that you can make
judgments about which time periods might be candidates for
more tape drive usage, or which work might be delayed or
accelerated in order to better balance the usage of tape
drives.
